    We would happily give aid to Switzerland, but they would turn us down.

    500 troops and 4 jets, 1 destroyer and frigate. A smart Argie planner could be tempted to a blitzkrieg hit but the UK subs would be his problem after that.

    Yes I think the same, the subs would stop them, oh, you forgot the 3 armoured tricycles that we have.

    4 jets, that's just pityful.

    You have got to be mad. That was a war worth fighting and as far as I'm aware it destroyed a brutal dictatorship. The war with Argentina was a war between to nations the war in the middle east is a war with an ideology. A war with a nation can be won a war with an ideology can not.

    Great web sight.

    Looks like we could fight quite happily over there if we get out of the middle east.
